If you guys are into dystopian sci-fi movies checkout this short movie called ZELLE (eng.: cell) by the young German filmmaker, Nicolas Heinemann. The special thing about this one is that the director constructed the whole setting in his shared flat room in Berlin Kreuzberg until his entire home looked like some kind of a spacestation.

Yes, scifi video game geeks, your wish has come true. Now you can fix these decals — reminiscent of the thousands of doors you’ve passed in Half Life, BioShock and the such — on the doors or walls in your home to make it look like you’re really living in your second life. Comes in four designs too: Airlock, Armory, Freight Elevator and Lab Door too. Yep. home decor has come a long way.

Joss Whedon’sFirefly is, in my opinion, the best Sci Fi series ever made. It never made it to series two, but as I understand it, Whedon said he would only make a new series of Buffy The Vampire Slayer if he could make a film based on Firefly. That was Serenity, one of my favourite Sci Fi films of all time. It’s essentially a western in space. I’ve just bought my second box set, as the other one is too worn to play. I reckon I watch it every month.

According to this, he was the ‘first person to ever make a living drawing spaceships‘ too.

This the concept reel for our upcoming sci-fi film. PROSPECT is the story of a young girl and her father hunting valuable resin on a toxic planet. When her father is attacked, she is forced to grow up quick. Our inspiration for the film is ultimately that we want to make the kind of sci-fi we want to see: sci-fi that takes itself seriously not only as a fantasy, but as a film. Find out how to get involved here.

His psychedelic sci-fi doodles are explosions of colour, texture and pattern. There is no focal point in many of his drawings, so your eyes are left wandering across the landscape of the page. His website is a feast for the visual culture voyeur.
